    Evelyn was born March 22,1929, in Kelly, Kansas, to Bernard (Barnie) and Mary Agnes Knipper Niehues. She graduated from St. Bede's High School in Kelly, Kansas.

    On August 21,1947 she married the love of her life, Clarence F. Hutfles. They resided and farmed in Corning, Kansas, until 1956, when they moved to a farm at Wetmore, Kansas, where they farmed until 1979. In retirement, they resided at Netawaka, Holton and Topeka, Kansas. They enjoyed 61 years of life together. After the death of Clarence, she recently resided at The Homestead in Auburn, Kansas, where everyone there became her second family.

    Evelyn was a homemaker and helped Clarence on the farm. After they sold the farm in 1979 she began her own home cleaning business, continuing this until 2001. She loved to cook, sew, play cards, bingo and assemble jigsaw puzzles. She was a beautiful seamstress. She loved her family and loved to have fun at whatever she did. She will be fondly remembered for her great sense of humor which she maintained even in her last days. She was always strengthened by her deep abiding faith in the Lord. She was previously a member of St. James Catholic Church, and Altar Society, in Wetmore, Kansas; St. Dominic Catholic Church in Holton, Kansas; and since 2002, Christ the King Catholic Church in Topeka, Kansas.
